So the time of exams is nearly drawing to a close for me. I've been revising since, well before the 5th of June which was my first exam. Just Sociology left now. This is a subject which has caused a great deal of mental trauma for me this year. I loved Sociology at college, as sad as this sounds, it really inspired me. Now I find that its become very different, I have a seminar tutor who is about as much use as a chocolate teapot for making a cup of coffee and it rarely seems to grab my attention as it used to. It doesn't help that now all my flatmates have finished with exams - the drive to revise has all but gone. Still I'm struggling through, just another day of revision then its all gone. And in that day of revision I have a shopping trip with Mark and Pete to look forward too. I do love shopping trips on a Tuesday! So I'm going to go and ignore my revision for a bit longer (it's becoming a well developed skill) xHe Wishes For The Cloths Of Heaven
'Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half-light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams'
W.B. Yeats
(as cited in Best Loved Poems ed. Neil Philip, (Little, Brown, Great Britain, 2000) p. 41)
